1st Author1*and 2nd Author2

1Affiliation2Affiliation

Keywords: 3- 5 words. Keywords have to reflect the content and specific character of

the study area chosen by the author. A list of recommended keywords can be found on

the site of our journal. Common keywords (composite materials, mechanical

properties, etc.), characterizing any paper published in the journal MCM, should be

avoided.

Abstract is a concise summary of the paper with basic actual information and

conclusions. The abstract should begin with a summary of the essence of the study and

should not contain descriptions of the data published earlier, well-known statements

and formulas, and references. The body of the text is determined by the content of the

article, the amount of information, and its scientific value and should not exceed 250

words.

1. General

The title of the paper should reflect the subject of investigation in a precise compact form. It

should not be similar to the title of a monograph. Word combinations “To the question...,” “On the

problem...,” etc. should be avoided. In its optimum variant, the title should include the basic

keywords of the study.

The article should contain initials and family names of authors (the corresponding author is

indicated by an asterisk; at the bottom of the first page, his or her e-mail address and phone are

indicated), and then its title is given. The paper should contain: abstract and keywords, affiliations,

conclusions, figures, and tables.

* Corresponding author; e-mail address, telephone

The text of paper should be divided into sections and subsections (e.g. Introduction. 1.

Problem Statement. 1.1. Nonlinear dynamics etc. Conclusions. REFERENCES).

2. Manuscripts

2.1. Formatting the text

The text of paper (in the text editor Microsoft for Windows, Times New Roman type, 12 pt.,

with 2.5-cm margins and an 1.25-cm indentation) should be printed at 1.5 intervals on white paper

of standard size (format A4, 210 × 297 mm). The manuscript should not exceed 20 pages (40,000

symbols, including spaces) plus no more than 10 figures or photographs (including a, b, …). The

Editorial Board reserves the right to abbreviate the articles, irrespective of their volume.

The text should contain references to all tables and figures. Experimental data and calculation

results not discussed in the article should not be cited. The authors are requested to avoid duplication

of information in the text, tables, and figures.

Equations must be indented. If the formulas are cited in the text, they should be numbered,

with the numbers given in parentheses in the right margin. All formulas have to be set up using

Microsoft Word Equation or any version of Math Type:

(1)

Tables (obligatorily with brief and clear titles) should be typed double - spaced on separate

sheets. They should not contain empty columns, rows, and unexplained abbreviations. The symbols

of quantities should be followed by their dimensions.

2.2. Figures

Graphs, diagrams, and schemes should be submitted at the end of the Microsoft Word file,

after References, in the CDR, XLS, AI, PPT, WMF, EMF, or TIF formats a resolution of 600 dpi.

Photographs, only in a black-and-white variant (grayscale 8-bit), should be submitted in the

TIF, JPG, GIF, or PNG formats with a resolution of 300 dpi.

The graphic files should not be included in the text; each figure should be saved as a separate

file.

Figures should be placed singly on a list, with all their pats a, b, … put on the same list. It is

advised that the dimensions of the figures given in the manuscript allow their reproduction without

scaling. Only a minimum amount of wordy and numerical designations should be left of figures – all

explanations should be included in figure captions. If the author expects that the figures will be

reduced, the dimensions of lines and characters must be increased in the manuscript.

Illustrations in the PDF and EPS formats are not accepted.

2.3. References

The literature cited is presented at the end of the article in the reference list, in the quotation

order in the text, and has to reflect the urgency of the subject-matter of the work. Optimum is 20-30

references; among them, advisable are references, on the literature published during the last 10-15

years. The proportion of self-citation should not exceed 25% on the average. The references should

be marked in the text by a serial number in square brackets, for example [5]. The bibliography

should be formed according to ISO 690-1.

Electronic resources. For indicating the electronic address, the URL (Uniform Resource

Locator) abbreviation is used, followed by the electronic address. The date of reference to the

resource has to be indicated obligatory.

Use the style of the examples given below.
